Dear Theo,
Here we are at four months, or here you are at four months (technically, four and a half ... we are just a busy family!). We are definitely in a groove now, with some days here and there where I have no clue what to do other than just basically take one minute at a time. My favorite part of my day is when we get home work/school, and its you, your brother and I just hanging out. Well maybe its when I pick you up out of your crib in the mornings and you have a big smile for me. Either way, any time with you is my favorite.
At four months,
-you are eating now cereal, bananas, sweet potatoes and recently pears and mangoes. When trying something new you totally gag followed up by a puking session. Then its back to eating as usual.
-you are more aware of your surroundings; always looking for Max, or following me around.
-you can push yourself up to where your chest is off the floor when laying on your tummy.
-you enjoy being in the exersaucer for small periods of time.
-you are grasping and holding items in your hands consistently; and all items make it to the mouth.
-you had special visitors - Grandpa and cousin Ian.
-you weighed in at 16 pounds at your appointment.
-your hair still is crazy; some days its mohawk, others you are channeling Donald Trump.
-you are starting to show signs of turning over.
-you smile all the time.
I am enjoying you so much lately. I love that you are so engaging and smile and laugh. I still worry I dont spend enough time with you, and even your brother, and I do my best to make up for any time lacking on the weekends. Your brother shows signs of kindness periodically, which just makes my heart swoon. I cant wait to see your relationship grow.
I love you so much little boy.
Love,
Mama

I had to change up the picture location because I havent been able to get the picture taken during day light hours. I seriously need to have post-it notes on my forehead.
